Well are you? What’s your excuse? Do you procrastinate? Are you disorganised? Or are you like me and wander through life with zero correlation to time, born late I was

I'm all of the above! I seem to really struggle with the concept of time. I think things which end up taking 10mins will take a day, but also always think I'll be ready in 5mins for a night out when I know it takes hours!

Yes, my time keeping can be dodgy. It’s a bit tough because my family are always always late. I spent ten years with an excessively early person, always early, so you’d think that would have had an impact? Did it fuck, I just reverted to the default.

When I went to a Tapping Group (EFT) once, the instructor guy helped one woman unpick her lateness and it seemed she had complex underlying reasons for it. Psychology is fascinating.

Mortified if I'm late for work or privately.

Height of rudeness unless a really good excuse!

If traffic likely an issue then set off early.

I travel up to 300 miles for a meeting. Very rarely late.

If I am then I apologize profusely

I don't really take much notice of time but if I have an appointment or meeting friends then I'm always on time. I can't bare lateness I've up and gone

Dad told me that 15 minutes early was 5 minutes late. I can’t stand being late for anything.

Other than traffic there aren’t many real reasons other than not being bothered.

I'm always early to things as I hate the stress of feeling like I'm running late. The trade off, however, is feeling like I'm wasting life waiting for others who are clearly living life in all its rich tapestry.

To be fair, I always reckon the closer you work, the later you leave it. I'm way earlier to my work in Nottingham than I ever was working in Derby

If I arrange to be somewhere at a certain time, I'll be there barring unavoidable delays.

I procrastinate, a lot though. If something needs to be done by a certain date you can be sure I'll leave it until the last minute.

You’re right, everyday I’m like I’ll just leave it 5 more minutes, I’ll still make it. Knowing fine well I’ll definitely not make it

I think I only get away with it because I’ve been there a really long time so they know what I’m like.

Yep.

My ex sister in law was habitually late. I felt she thought her time was more important than mine so I just stopped turning up to meet her.

I'm good but it's incredibly difficult, for a multitude of reasons. Everyone who knows me talks of Sophia-time. It runs somewhat parallel to the universe but isn't quite in alignment. I get some leeway, thank goodness

This thread has came at the right time… I have a terrible habit where the more I have to do or it the more important something is, the later I leave it

For example… I’m going away for work tomorrow and have to be up mega early, so why am I still packing, showering, tanning and painting my toenails at midnight when i did absolutely nothing between 7pm-10pm? And here I am again, dawdling on Fab when I should be asleep! What’s that all about??

Every woman I’ve been in a relationship with, right back to my teenage days, has been late for everything, ever. And I’m fine with that. Oddly, I find it endearing.

Always early. I plan ahead for everything, and contingency plan as well.

Flying at 12pm and it takes 2 hours to get there, and 2 hrs checking ? I won't arrive at 8am. I'll be there for 6am.

My rule of thumb is to double the time needed to get to a place. If it's under an hour, it becomes an hour.

I never arrive late. I arrive relaxed, refreshed, unstressed and saunter in at my own sweet pace.

A study showed people who are always late will live longer than the organised on time person .. due to the lack of care shown by the late person .. they are more laid back and relaxed . Ha random

I'm very rarely late I'm usually early. If I'm running late something really bad has happened to delay me. I can't stand it when people are always late also I find it rude when you've arranged to meet someone and they turn up late and it is just because that's what they do.

I'm rarely late.

And... to be really honest, I find people who are constantly late a bit fucking irritating. Sure, your time is more important than mine, I'm happy to wait around for you because hehe you're such a maverick.

No. Fuck off. I really don't care how 'hot' you are, it's lazy, self important and just bleurgh.

For all of my obvious dislike of it; I do have friends, very close ones who are habitually late but I still adore.

So, if I'm doing something with them, I'll tell them an earlier time so they actually arrive on time. Lo and behold it works.

My biggest ick when meeting people is time keeping. It's not that hard to agree to a time and stick to it.
